Glad they finally got this article to appear, as previously it pointed to an old story. This is an interesting idea, but it's shy on specifics. BT isnt known to work well as a one-to-one transfer mechanism, as it relies on multiple sources. I like the encription and the lack of data searching, but I'm not convinced using BT is any more reliable than simply sending the information by another source.
